When it comes to sex toys, you don’t really know if you’re going to love it until you try it.
The good news is that the team at marie claire Australia often have access to the latest sex toys as they launch, to do the hard work for you. (Honestly, not that hard work).
2024 has seen an array of new sex toys become popular, from the brand new iteration of the Womanizer, called the ‘Next’, to all new couples vibrators that also double as the ultimate lazy girl vibe.
Here, we run through some of the key launches you should know about, and what kind of pleasure they can elicit, before you take the plunge to add them to your collection.
Womanizer Next Clitoral Suction Stimulator
It uses 3D Pleasure Air to create a gentle sucking sensation on your clitoris. Compared to previous Womanizer vibrators, this one pulses at a slower rate which gives you more control over the stimulation and completely avoids the sensation of being overstimulated. This also means you can use it for longer and experience multiple orgasms.
The best thing about the air pulses is that it doesn’t even feel like you’re using a machine—it feels more like natural oral sex.
The vibrator also includes a climax control that allows you to customise the depths of the vibrations along with the speed.
The fact that this vibrator is the Womanizer’s quietest model to date also doesn’t hurt.

We-Vibe Sync O
Calling all lazy girls, this is the ultimate vibrator where you have to do, well, literally nothing.
The Sync O is a c-shaped vibrator with one ‘arm’ design to be inserted into the vagina and the other ‘arm’ to curve along the the vulva finishing at the clitoris.
It’s designed to be a couple’s vibrator, where one arm (shaped like an O) sits inside the vagina as well as your partner, offering vibrations for both you and him. However, the Sync O is also brilliant for solo play. You can simply insert, grab the vibe’s remote and let the pleasure steadily build.
Whether you’re needing a little extra buzz when with your man, or just looking for a remote-controlled vibration while you sip some wine and watch a romance movie, this is the vibrator for you.

We-Vibe Ditto Vibrating Butt Plug
This is a butt plug like you’ve not seen before. While we’d admit that anal stimulators aren’t for everyone, there are a lot of nerve endings in that region and it is something that you might find mega enjoyment in, if you choose to play in that space.
The Ditto is designed with a slender base that hugs the curve of your butt while inserted, offering a wider range of external pleasure as well as the internal stimulation. It’s an approachable size, offers 10 different patterns, and can even be app-controlled for long-distance couples.
We’d recommend trying it out first in your solo sessions, and then consider adding it as an addition to partnered play. It is a very versatile vibe to have on hand.

The We-Vibe Rave 2 G-spot vibrator is perfect for those who prefer internal orgasms.
With an asymmetrical shape and malleable hinge, you can adjust the vibrator to fit your own unique body shape and natural movements. This gives you the best chance at maximising your own pleasure.
The vibrator also comes with 10 preset vibration modes, which can all be controlled via the We-Vibe app—perfect for those with long distance lovers.

Womanizer Duo 2 Rechargeable Silicone G-Spot and Clitoral Stimulator
For all the girlies who enjoy internal stimulation (and a little something on the side), consider this your entree, main and dessert. The Duo features a two-arm design, with one arm offering Womanizer Pleasure-Air suction technology, and the other a vibrating dildo that is perfectly shaped to hit that internal bundle of nerves we call the G-Spot.
A new take on a classic ‘rabbit’ design, the combination of the suction stimulation and internal rumble is a multi-sensory experience. With 10 vibration patterns and 14 intensity levels, you can have this going as teasing or hard as you like.
Once you reach O-moment, the Duo also has a comforting ‘afterglow’ setting, which will take the intensity right down to a gentle rolling pace, at the press of a single button.

Lovehoney Power Petal 2-in-1 Clitoral Suction Stimulator with Thrusting Egg Vibrator
Beginners to sex toys should head straight for this adorable rose-shaped sex toy. It looks super approachable in a sweet pink shade, with the rose offering a mix of external stimulation and suction pleasure that is gentle but purposeful.
This rose also comes with an attached internal vibe, that you can use to stimulate other parts of your body simultaneously, when and if you’re ready. In this way, it isa very ‘opt in’ vibe, where you can reach for the pleasure you need, but don’t need to do both.
Essentially, this is like the level one version of the Womanizer Duo, and is a great addition to any sex toy collection.
